WSL2 Backup Errors

Post by tbalci »

Hi Folks,

I added my WSL2 configuration files to Backup4All without any issues, however backups do not end successfully with the following warnings:

[27/11/2022 15:59:57] Warning: Skipping file \\wsl.localhost\Ubuntu\Home\Tolga\.bashrc
The system cannot find the path specified
[27/11/2022 15:59:57] Warning: Skipping file \\wsl.localhost\Ubuntu\Home\Tolga\.profile
The system cannot find the path specified
...
Warnings continue for other files
...
Backup aborted after 6:37 minute(s) at 27/11/2022 15:59:57 with 1 error(s), 10 warning(s)

I can browse my WSL2 directory from within Backup4All as in the screenshot.

My system details are:
OS Name: Microsoft Windows 11 Pro
OS Version: 10.0.22621 N/A Build 22621
OS Manufacturer: Microsoft Corporation
OS Configuration: Standalone Workstation
OS Build Type: Multiprocessor Free
Processor(s): 1 Processor(s) Installed.
[01]: AMD64 Family 23 Model 113 Stepping 0 AuthenticAMD ~3600 Mhz
BIOS Version: American Megatrends Inc. 4403, 27/04/2022

Backup4All version 9.8 Build 693

Any ideas?

Thank you.
